lonely passerby
insolent demeanor
face hidden in a hoodie
focused eyes
scanning the surroundings
hands deep in pockets
mischief at the fingertips
on a lookout for treasures
in for a change of ownership
cool wind lifts the leaves
storm is brewing above
dark clouds on approach
the hoodie falls back
revealing mop of hair
over stern face
hurt and unheard
disillusioned with life
the face of a child
in disguise

modern lifestyle
ripped jeans bare bum
stereo headphones
crowning the head
sound immersion
above covering the base
channels of influencers
spreading their truth
any city street
full of bent necks
bodies hunched
eyes on the screen
breathing restricted
to a pause in speech
airtime of more value
than air itself
